Georgia Pre-game

53 comments:

Hello All, And welcome to Jacksonville everybody is welcome at my house i can't wait for this weekend.. Ill Be making everyone homeade brawtwurst for the game since it is Oct. Any sleeping situations let me now well figure them out. Also i need 3 tickets or else you all drive home sat night and you dont stay with me j/k mayby

We have Georgia tickets for Chris and I, Jaime, Cassie, Jamie, Peacock and Mike, Kelley, and guest. Tickets were $36 dollars with a $10 hassle fee that will be split between Chris, Jaime, Cassie, and I, or can be directly paid to me in the form of chocolate.

It actually makes perfect sense. You can only pick up the ticket with your ID and one other ticket for the game, so Jaime has to get at least 3 of the people whose ID's we used to come with her to pick up tickets at the same time.

It makes sense if you know how the system works. I will try to make it clearer for you Peacock...in normal games, a student can pick up her/his ticket and up to three other students' tickets without those students being present. For FL/GA, UF has a lame rule where each student can only bring one additional ID with them to pick up tickets to the game.

For this game, I asked 7 friends who are not going to the game if I could use their IDs to get all of you tickets. When I go to get the tickets for all of us, I have to ask three of my friends to go with me to pick up tickets if we all want to sit together. Now go back and read my post again...

We need to decide whats up with this weekend. Do we have the parking pass? Can we park the trailer the night before? Are we bringing the trailer? Do we need the deep fryer? I am coming up at anytime before 5pm with the trailer if we are bringing it because traffic out of here is an absoulute cluster after 5.

Mike- Any problem with leaving the trailer Friday night before dinner if I dont know whats going on by then?

I have 2 packages of hotdogs and buns I will be bringing. There is one case of water in the trailer. There is an assortment of dark beer but not a ton. We should have enough soda for everyone but I will pick up some Pepsi. I will also grab another case of water as well.

Needs are whatever you want to eat off of the Grill. We need burgers and buns and whatever else you may want.

Key call on a Chris Leak fumble and subsequent review weirdly went against the Gators. Game was closer than the score, which was inflated by a fluke Auburn touchdown on the last play. Florida players saw all the orange and blue in the stands and thought they were playing in front of a home crowd; subsequent boos threw them off their game.

Case for: No other one-loss team has two better victories than the Gators' wins over Tennessee (in Knoxville) and LSU.

Case against: Florida has been good in every game and dazzling in none. Gators haven't scored more than 28 points in an SEC game since Nov. 5, 2005.

Big games ahead: Traditional late-season games against Georgia and Florida State are big, but won't pack the usual strength-of-schedule wallop with both the Bulldogs and Seminoles tanking. And there is the small matter of taking care of Steve Spurrier in The Swamp Nov. 11. That will be a pressure game for Urban Meyer.

The Dash Predicts: 11-1 heading into the SEC championship game, and very much in the fight for a BCS title berth.

"One of the teams [Tennessee] that jumped us had the same game that we had. Another team [Florida] that jumped us wasn't even playing. They were home eating cheeseburgers and they end up jumping us. That befuddles me." -- Charlie Weis

Just cuz they have the contract, doesn't mean it is the university's soda of choice. Also, that 9 of 10 preferring Pepsi is so wrong. If one other person on here can say that they like Coke better than Pepsi, point proven, cuz I hate pepsi. Cursed marketing contracts.

I think we need to have a pepsi/coke double blinded study one of these weekend. I will set up something for the weekend of S.C. and we will get a final consesus on which is the preferred drink of Gators.

Hey anoyone who need a place to stay is welcome here. Also have friends coming with us will bring beer chicken wings( We have a killer deal on Miller light here at one store can stock up let me know) mayby more. The Trailer is cool at my house any night. Im making homeade Brawtwurst tommorow for sat. The best ever. Bring the fryer if you can and if you can stop by my house fri chris before you take to trailer to the stadium we can drop off a couple coolers from here. Let me know chris. And why are you waisting your money on a hotel wish you were staying here...

One year, a Gator named Bob in Tallahassee called in and said "Coach, you've got to beat those Seminoles this year - you've just got to. I live in Tallahassee, and every time we lose, those guys just give it to me something awful." Spurrier, unfazed, replied "Bob, I suggest you move to Georgia."

The most famous quote from Spurrier came when a reporter pointed out that Florida was 15 games behind Georgia in the overall series and asked whether Spurrier thought he would still be coach when the series became tied. "I don't know," Spurrier replied "15 years is a long time."

1 of these IDs did not work, so that leaves the above total at 8. I was able to get 4 for Mike, so depending on his count we may or may not have enough.
